The return of David Moyes

[street end]

We can barely buy a goal right now

Mediocrity would be an enormous improvement

A goal? For that we would have to have a shot.

 

[TyphooToffee]

We won nothing. A few finishes for European places, wow. That's mediocrity.

I'll settle for that for a couple of years after the last ten.

 

[Vintage]

Not heard anything about backroom staff, who does he bring?

The davek wet dream of Big Dunc and Bainsey

 

[Amw79]

I’m not particularly enthused by Moyes. But is he the last manager we had who left us in a better state than when he arrived?

If and when he takes back over, we’re basically in the same position as when he took us over first time round. Dreadful thought.

[DanB90]

Which of our players do you see thriving under him most? And which do you think will be first to be punted?

 

[PhilM]

Which of our players do you see thriving under him most? And which do you think will be first to be punted?

N'Diaye, Dom and Patterson.

 

[Milkman]

We won nothing. A few finishes for European places, wow. That's mediocrity and the football we played was the very definition of mediocre.

Mental. And we laugh at Newcastle fans.

 

[lieneverton]

Which of our players do you see thriving under him most? And which do you think will be first to be punted?

I can see Patterson thriving. N'Diaye too I think will be more effective under him.

 

[Nealroy]

I'm going to choose to remember that last time around Moyes gave me several seasons of watching Leighton Baines and Steven Pienaar play together, which by some distance is the best football I've seen us play.

 

[jceverton]

You wouldn’t take that now?

I'd just about accept it for 6 months, after that no I wouldn't take it because we are going nowhere with Moyes as manager. We need to enter the modern football age, get a top class DOF in and appoint a progressive coach. That's the only way we are going to get any success. We are wasting the next 2 years with Moyes as manager if he's on a 2.5 year contract.

 

[Daytripper]

Well, at least they sorted it quickly I’ll give them credit for that

 

[Neiler]

It tells me they lack ambition and were unprepared. Enjoy the evening. I won't begrudge any Blue good times.

Ambition without a plan or competency mate is the regime we just left behind, Moyes builds football clubs.

It’s a very clever appointment.

 

[windymiller]

I’ll join you in that disappointment if he’s still here in August.

I don’t think he will be, and the apparent battle over the length of contract behind the scenes is what gives me that impression.

I think he's here for a minimum of 18 months (unless we're relegated). It'll be a 2 1/2 year contract, we ain't paying him an extra two years for a six month stint.

 

[Ragnar]

Which of our players do you see thriving under him most? And which do you think will be first to be punted?

Dom, N’Diaye, Patterson, Mangala.
